Answer:

Explanation:

This rapid growth increase was mainly caused by a decreasing death rate, and particularly an increase in average human age. By 2000 the population counted 6 billion heads, however, population growth started to decline after 1965 because of decreasing birth rates.

When metallic aluminum is added to a solution containing iron(II) sulfate a reaction occurs. What species is being oxidized in t

REY [17]

Answer: Aluminium is getting oxidized in the given chemical reaction.

Explanation:

Oxidation reaction is defined as the chemical reaction in which an atom looses its electrons. The oxidation number of the atom gets increased during this reaction.

$X\rightarrow X^{n+}+ne^-$

Reduction reaction is defined as the chemical reaction in which an atom gains electrons. The oxidation number of the atom gets reduced during this reaction.

$X^{n+}+ne^-\rightarrow X$

For the given chemical reaction:

$2Al(s)+3FeSO_4(aq.)\rightarrow Al_2(SO_4)_3(aq.)+3Fe(s)$

The half cell reactions for the above reaction follows:

Oxidation half reaction: $Al\rightarrow Al^{3+}+3e^-$

Reduction half reaction: $Fe^{2+}+2e^-\rightarrow Fe$

As, aluminium is loosing 3 electrons to form aluminium cation. Thus, it is getting oxidized. Iron is gaining 2 electrons to form iron anion. Thus, it is getting reduced.

Hence, the oxidized species of the given reaction is aluminium.

Ethylene produced by fermentation has a specific gravity of 0.787 at 25 degree Celsius. What is the volume of 125g of ethanol at

WITCHER [35]

Answer: The volume of given amount of ethanol at this temperature is 159.44 mL

Explanation:

Specific gravity is given by the formula:

$\text{Specific gravity}=\frac{\text{Density of a substance}}{\text{Density of water}}$

We are given:

Density of water = 0.997 g/mL

Specific gravity of ethanol = 0.787

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.787=\frac{\text{Density of a substance}}{0.997g/mL}\\\\\text{Density of a substance}=(0.787\times 0.997g/mL)=0.784g/mL$

Density is defined as the ratio of mass and volume of a substance.

$\text{Density}=\frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}$ ......(1)

Given values:

Mass of ethanol = 125 g

Density of ethanol = 0.784 g/mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Volume of ethanol}=\frac{125g}{0.784g/mL}=159.44mL$

Hence, the volume of given amount of ethanol at this temperature is 159.44 mL

77julia77 [94]

Answer:

Magnetism is believed to be caused by the alignment of small, numerous sub-units called : Domains

Explanation:

Domains : A magnetic domain is the region in which in which magnetic field of the atoms are grouped together and aligned.

In unmagnetized material all the magnetic Domains point in different direction.

In magnetised material (ferromagnets , antiferromagnets) , The Domains point in a particular( fixed Pattern) direction.
